Recenzii
“In Illegal Mining the editors thoughtfully constellate a variety of scholarship together to produce this timely and important book … . this thought-provoking book is fundamental for empowering future decision-makers to do a better job than we and those before us were able to do … . Illegal Mining, and the research and scholarship therein, is a must-read book promoting a ‘gold’ standard for how academia should consider the twin, braided perils of OCGs and illegal mining.” (James Gacek, International Criminology, Vol. 1, 2021)

Textul de pe ultima copertă
This book provides a comprehensive analysis of the illegal extraction of metals and minerals from the perspectives of organized crime theory, green criminology, anti-corruption studies, and victimology. It includes contributions that focus on organized crime-related offences, such as drug trafficking and trafficking in persons, extortion, corruption and money laundering and sheds light on the serious environmental harms caused by illegal mining. Based on a wide range of case studies from the Amazon rainforest through the Ukrainian flatlands to the desert-like savanna of Central African Republic and Australia’s elevated plateaus, this book offers a unique insight into the illegal mining business and the complex relationship between organized crime, corruption, and ecocide. This is the first book-length publication on illegal extraction, trafficking in mined commodities, and ecocide associated with mining. It will appeal to scholars working on organized crime and green crime, including criminologists, sociologists, anthropologists, and legal scholars. Practitioners and the general public may welcome this comprehensive and timely publication to contemplate on resource-scarcity, security, and crime in a rapidly changing world.
